Scanning stations with Radio
Scan
You can also scan through all of the sta-
tions in your reception area.
To start the Scan function:
• Press SC briefly.
The scanned frequency or the station name
will start flashing in the display.
During the actual scanning process “AM-
SCAN” or “FM-SCAN” will appear in the dis-
play.
To select a scanned station and switch
off the Radio-Scan function:
• Press SC or the seek tuning rocker
switch briefly.
If no station is selected, the scan function
will switch off automatically after the frequen-
cy band has run through completely. The
radio will tune into the station selected be-
fore the scan started.
Changing the scan time
The scan time can be selected from between
5 to a maximum of 30 seconds.
If you would like to alter the scan time,
please refer to the section on “DSC program-
ming - SCANTIME”.
Selecting the seek tuning sensi-
tivity
You can alter the automatic seek tuning
sensitivity.
If “lo” is displayed, the radio will only pick up
strong, local stations (low sensitivity).
If “lo” does not light up, the radio will also
pick up weaker, more distant stations (high
sensitivity).
If you would like to alter the sensitivity level
please refer to the section on “DSC program-
ming – LO-DX”).
Switching from stereo to mono
(FM)
Using the DSC menu you can switch from
stereo to mono reception. If reception is
poor, you may get better sound quality by
switching to mono. When the radio is
switched on, it automatically selects stereo
reception.
As reception deteriorates, the radio will grad-
ually switch to mono.
If you would like to switch to mono recep-
tion manually, please refer to the section on
“DSC programming – STEREO/MONO”.
The display will briefly indicate the mode
selected.
Adjusting the bandwidth (FM)
In the DSC menu, you can use the SHARX
function to adjust the bandwidth in the FM
frequency range. This can be a great ad-
vantage when there is a large number of
stations within your current reception range.
Interference with strong adjacent stations
can be reduced to an absolute minimum if
you activate “SHARX ON”.
If necessary, refer to “DSC programming –
SHARX”.
PTY - Programme Type
PTY is an RDS service which an increasing
number of more broadcasting stations have
begun to offer. This feature allows you to
select FM stations according to their pro-
gramme type. After you have chosen the
PTY of your preference, the corresponding
stations can be selected either by seek tun-
ing or using the scan function.
